hey Joe if you want a really good deallook into JBL 1200.1 or the Kicker 1200(will costa little more) MTX 1200 Orion 1200D, The best deal I have found for a good amp cheap power is the Infinity 1210A you might want to try that one out. Look on ebay and buy new if you can. Just remember to look at users feedback ratings to make sure they are good sellers. 97% or better usually depending on how many sales they have. good luck.
Do not buy Lanzar/Pyramid/Sony/Pyle/ and few other no name brands. They're mostly junk. You will regret it later. For $200-$300 range, look at PPI/Orion/JBL/MTX amps.
I'm using my brother's sony xplod 760 watt amp right now but it won't turn on. It does have power running to it and none of the fuses are blown. Is it fried?
